Stuffed Tomatoes with Goat Cheese, Olives, and Oregano
Thanks to Dorina for the recipe!
Serves 6 as a side dish
6 firm, ripe tomatoes (about 8 ounces each), 1/8 inch sliced off stem end, cored, and seeded
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup coarse homemade bread crumbs
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon olive oil
3 ounces goat cheese , crumbled
2 medium cloves garlic , minced (about 2 teaspoons)
ground black pepper
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano leaves
3 tablespoons pitted and chopped black olives
1. Sprinkle inside of each tomato with salt and place upside down on several layers of paper toweling; let stand to remove excess moisture, about 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, toss bread crumbs with 1 tablespoon olive oil, goat cheese, garlic, parsley, oregano, olives, and pepper to taste in small bowl; set aside. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees; line bottom of 9 by 13-inch baking dish with foil.
3. Roll up several sheets of paper towels and pat inside of each tomato dry. Arrange tomatoes in single layer in baking dish. Brush top cut edges of tomatoes with 1 teaspoon oil. Mound stuffing into tomatoes (about 1/4 cup per tomato); drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Bake until tops are golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
